I am experiencing the same thing. It's awful and super annoying. What I have been doing is using Tiger Balm, which I swear by, and using a warm heat source. Also, sometimes using two pillows will help. Sit on one pillow, and prop the other behind you. Hope you find some relief! Congrats on your new baby!

My physical therapist showed me some stretches to do. She said my low back pain is because my pelvis is out of alignment and most women have this but it’s not a problem until pregnancy or after pregnancy because of the changes that happen to your body. Yoga helps as well

I sit mostly at work as well, and between the hip pain and lower back pain from sciatic nerve pain I googled for relief. I went on Amazon and bought this pillow to sit on. I also googled stretches that have seemed to give me some relief as well.

I was having lower left back pain. And I emailed my doc about it. SHe said it’s very common, she said as long as no bleeding while peeing or leaking.. everything should be ok. More than likely sciatic nerve. She also said if I was having tightening of my uterus to call L&D.
